juSTa Diwans Bungalow
Bungalow charm, a fourteen-minute walk to Manek Chowk
About this hotel
juSTa Diwans Bungalow trades tower height for a traditional bungalow setting, rooms with private balconies overlooking a garden built around an outdoor fireplace and seating area. The restaurant leans into a romantic, traditional ambience, serving Indian cuisine with halal and vegetarian options for lunch and dinner, a genuine draw beyond the room itself. Location works in the property's favor: nine kilometers from the airport, a fourteen-minute walk from Manek Chowk and 2.4 kilometers from the Sabarmati Riverfront, keeping the old city's key sights within easy reach. Couples have rated the two-person-trip location highly, and the concierge service alongside free on-site parking rounds out a stay that feels more personal than a standard business hotel.
- Garden and outdoor fireplace
- Balcony rooms
- Halal and vegetarian dining
Our take
juSTa Diwans Bungalow suits travelers who want traditional character and walkable old-city access over tower height or a business-corridor address. It rewards an evening spent in the garden by the fireplace, less so travelers specifically seeking a rooftop pool or panoramic skyline view over the newer part of the city and its towers.
- ✓Book a balcony room specifically for the garden outlook this bungalow setting is built around.
- ✓Walk to Manek Chowk in the evening, roughly fourteen minutes, for the old city's night food market.
- ✓Try the Indian restaurant's halal or vegetarian dinner menu rather than defaulting to a generic hotel meal.

Why guests love itWe spent our first evening in the garden by the fireplace, the traditional bungalow setting feeling worlds away from a standard hotel despite being minutes from Manek Chowk. Dinner at the in-house restaurant leaned into proper Indian flavors, and the concierge sorted a rickshaw for our walk back from the night market when we stayed out later than planned that particular night.
